The Republican presidential hopeful was asked about music in an interview Wednesday and took the opportunity to bring up Gaga.

“I have a question for you guys,” he told his interviewers from the blog Glittarazzi. “Are you ready? What’s your favorite Lady Gaga song?”

The reporters offered up “Edge of Glory” and “Paparazzi.”

TPaw then shared his picks: “In terms of the beat, I like ‘Bad Romance.' I gotta say that even though she’s a little unusual, ‘Born This Way’ has got some appeal. She’s actually very talented. If you go to … the Lady Gaga HBO special, and you watch her sing a cappella, ‘Born This Way’, she can sing. … And she does it a cappella. So, interesting, talented, a little weird but you know.”

Gaga is an outspoken liberal, but Pawlenty said that he’s a fan nonetheless.

“If you had to limit your artistic choices to just conservatives, we wouldn’t have a lot of choices,” he said. “You gotta be willing to tolerate different politics.”
